योगाध्यायः
यातेवक्रग्रहर्क्षंजनुषिभृगुसुतेमानवस्तोषदायीसीमंतिन्यारतेःस्यान्नखलुमदनगोभार्गवंलग्ननाथः ॥पश्येत्स्वीयालयस्थोयदिरहसितदाकामिनीतोषदातानस्यादेवंहिमांशुर्दिनकरसुतयुग्भौमतःखेसुखेवा ॥ १९ ॥
Venus may sit in the sign of a retrograde planet at birth. Then the person tends to give women joy in love. The lord of the 1st house may sit in its own sign, not in the 7th, and look at Venus. Then he gives women joy in private. It is not so if the Moon is with Saturn, in the 10th or 4th from Mars.
Simple meaning: Venus in a retrograde planet's sign, or seen by the 1st lord, may make a person pleasing to women.
क्षोणीपुत्रेणयुक्तःप्रथमसुरगुरुर्लग्नतःषष्ठपोयंकामाधिक्यंनराणांजनयतिनियतंपापदृष्टोविशेषात् ॥
Venus with Mars as the 6th lord may give strong desire. Saturn rising in Sagittarius or Taurus, little.

Saturn in Capricorn may make a person speak little. A Moon hurt by bad planets may harm the eyes.

Jupiter or Venus seeing Mars rising may harm an eye. Mars just ahead of the Sun may dim them.
